"The festival hasn’t even fully started yet, and it’s already buzzing."

"The arts high school festival is happening this year, huh."

"Those chicken skewers look so damn good."

This wasn’t my first time vlogging, but it was my first time filming in a place this crowded.

Our school festival had a history comparable to some local cultural festivals. The huge crowd wasn’t just my imagination.

With all the promotional efforts we’d made, it wasn’t surprising to see people from the surrounding areas flocking here.

That said, how was I supposed to get inside the school? The sheer number of people made even approaching the main gate difficult.

"So many people, damn."

"I’m already inside, lol."

"The chicken skewers look great, but you’d need at least an hour to get one."

"Hmm… Maybe I can squeeze through if I try hard enough."

No, that would probably lead to a mess. Better to avoid pushing through and head to the back gate instead.

Luckily, the back gate was a bit less crowded than the front, though still far from empty.

‘At this point, do I even need to bother with broadcasting the festival?’

With this many people, the promotional broadcast they asked me to do felt unnecessary.@@novelbin@@

Thinking about this, I finally made my way into the school.

Whether inside or outside, the place was swarming. From above, it must have looked like an ant colony.

The visitor count easily seemed to number in the thousands.

"So many people…"

"I wonder who’ll perform later?"

"I hope Lemon River shows up!"

"Excuse me..."

Even the path to my classroom wasn’t smooth sailing. The inside of the building was just as packed.
